excellent from business office, to estimate by Stephen Ogden to a good job done by their work crew. This is the second time I've used this company and they really have it together.

Everyone was great to work with and very professional. I worked closely with Sheila on scheduling since I was a bit out of the way for them. When the guys showed up to do the work yesterday we walked my yard to be sure they had all of the details. The work was done quickly and was cleaned up afterwards. It seems like everyone enjoys their job and enjoys working together. They had great camaraderie! I’ve recommended them to a couple of friends and neighbors already.

They were absolutely great. They came out, did an estimate, prepared a certified arborist report and, after I got approval fromthe HOA, they scheduled and performed the work. Some of the trees were difficult to reach so they had a great climber take two of the trees down in sections and do most of the trimming. This is a very professional company.

I cannot speak highly enough of Central Florida Arborcare. I had 5 large oak trees to the front and side of my home. I decided to cut them down as I feared the ones at the front could damage by septic tank and driveway, and the ones to the side could damage my home during a hurricane. I called a few different companies to get quotes, and was amazed by how cheap Central Florida ArborCare were in comparison. Being a natural sceptic, I did further research on them, and spoke to some people that had previously used them, and all the research I did pointed to the fact that they seemed very reputable. I decided to give them the job, and I was so impressed by their professionalism, their knowledge and expertise and their consideration for me, my property, and our neighbors properties. They are without doubt one of the best companies I have had experiences in dealing with. My neighbors were so impressed with the work they did, and the price they charged, that they also used them to remove some trees that they were worried about. I will finish with this thought...just because something costs a lot more, does not necessarily mean that it is that much better. I had companies quoting me $1000+ per tree. This company were charging nowhere near that, but their work was some of the best I have experienced.

I saw Arbor Care removing a tree in a neighbor's yard and asked if they could do some work for me. I called the main office and someone came out within an hour to give me a quote. When the other job was finished, they moved the heavy equipment to my yard to remove two large limbs hanging over my roof and to cleaned up my tree trunks a bit. The workers were very professional. They did a great job cutting the limbs, carrying away the debris and leaving a clean yard - all of this at a reasonable price. My experience with Central Florida Arbor Care was the best.

I contacted Arborcare to get a quote for tree trimming, tree removal, shrub removal and stump grinding. They had a certified arborist come out and speak with me and they gave me a very reasonable quote for the amount of work that needed to be done. They also had no issues with providing me their certificates of insurance, which made me feel more comfortable. They showed up and did a great job. The guys were very nice and knowledgeable. I was really impressed with how new and well-maintained their equipment was. They clearly care about giving their employees the proper tools for the job. They could have easily handled a much larger job than mine. They did a great job of cleaning up all the debris, including sweeping and blowing off the driveway and sidewalks. I will definitely be using them again and would highly recommend them to anyone who needs a tree service.

Excellent!! Broken limbs were hanging in the canopy of three trees at 20+ feet in the air and there were dead trees to remove. It was easy to see the members of the crew were experienced and have worked together before. They were not just labor pool walk-ons. They quickly set up and went to their individual tasks. I was totally impressed with the attention to detail of the clean-up. I have already recommended them to friends and will go with these folks again when more tree work is needed

They handled the permit required by the City of Winter Park, met the arborist from the city, proceeded to bring in the heavy equipment and the crew and completed the entire job in 1 1/2 days. They used top quality equipment and electronic headsets to communicate with the crew member in the tree. Very professional, competitive fee, and Tony was a great guy to deal with. Always kept me informed during the process. I highly recommend them and will definitely use them again.

Perfect, from start to finish! This is an amazing thing to watch, it is carefully calculated and systematically done and the utmost care taken to safely take down this very large oak that was left when neighborhood was constructed. Unfortunately some 30 years later it had become an issue lifting patio etc. I am between several villas in very close range, so removing this large oak was no easy task. Hire Central Florida Arbor Care if you want an extremely professional crew who took extreme care to safely take down this tree. Everything was cleaned up and completely put back in order.

Visit and estimate by owner Steve Ogden was made in a timely manner. On the day work performed, the crew was very prompt in arriving at my address. We introduced ourselves and reviewed the work to be done. The workmen were friendly and considerate. They answered any questions I had and performed brief task requests. Cleanup was done well. I might add that the office staff was courteous as well. One minor hitch. Irma delayed my start date.

The owner provided an estimate on site and it was very fair compared to many other estimates we received. Some other estimates were as much as double and triple the price they quoted. It was to be scheduled at least four weeks out but they were able to come in about two weeks time. The crew was punctual. They were very friendly and professional - it was clear every man had a specific job and they worked together very well with a lot of coordination. They had good equipment too which made what seemed like a dangerous job look easy. The tree was hanging over the pool enclosure and the enclosure/screen could have easily been damaged by falling limbs or debris. They managed the entire job very safely. They also removed some branches around he side of the house that were beginning to rub on the roof.

Overall, their office staff and the Owner were both very responsive and very nice to work with. I had a tricky situation because I couldn't figure out whether I needed to take down a tree or just cut it back. Ultimately, I decided to take it down, but to Central Florida Arbor Care's credit, they were not pushy and they worked with my changing needs/desires. When the gentlemen came to do the job, they were super courteous, they worked to make sure no damage happened to my house or my neighbor's house. I was very impressed with just about all of the gentlemen who were there. There was one man who was up on my roof with a cigarette in his hands, and that bothered me. But when I told the foreman that I didn't want them smoking while working up in the trees, he was very courteous and immediately corrected the issue! He said "yes Ma'am, I'll go talk to them about it right now." And he did! And there was no further issue after that. I would use CFAC again in the future. They also went above and beyond when I asked them to cut me some logs for my fire pit, and then they cut me a table top from the trunk of the tree. I am very grateful to them. They worked all day, took minimal breaks, were courteous, did professional work, and really impressed!

I had a large, dead Cherry Laurel tree in my backyard that need to be removed as it had become a safety hazard, due to decay. Central Florida Arbor Care office people, estimator and crew were polite, professional and punctual. The crew even offered to haul away for free a pile of branches that I had previously trimmed from a different tree and I had left on the side of my yard. Kudos to Central Florida Arbor Care!

They have a great piece of equipment which allows them to trim safely on 35+ foot tall queen palms. Did a great job clearing the trim up to street and blowing area after completed. Price was not cheapest, however, the work was done safely, quickly, and they looked to make sure I was satisfied with all phases of the work.

It went very well. The entire project using 4 men took 6 days to complete. Steve, the owner is extremely knowledgeable and made me feel at ease with his description of his company's capability to accomplish this task. He sent many different machines to use in the job. Les Everett, the foreman also proved very knowledgeable and kept his men working hard.

It went fabulous! Polite, professional, did as I asked. Very pleased. Showed up when they said they would. I stayed and watched as they cleaned out and trimmed the large oak tree and it was obvious Les knew what he was doing. He did not butcher my tree nor does it look like a mushroom.

The owner, Steve, came out to give us an estimate. He is very professional and spent quite a bit of time listening to our needs and making recommendations for not only what would look best but also what would be best for the health of the trees and yard. When the 4-man crew arrived to do the work, they were all polite, friendly, and professional. The foreman, Jessie, spent time walking through the property with me before they began and verified we were on the same page about the work. The crew worked very efficiently on the projects, and checked in with me regularly to inspect the work or ask questions if needed. After a full day of work, I'm very satisfied with how well it turned out. The crew even trimmed and shaped the hedges out front to complete the overall look of the yard. They cleaned up as they worked, and left the property clean. I was impressed with the company, and would recommend them.

Outstanding company. They are knowledgeable, professional, prompt, and courteous. They explained what needed to be done, why, and how the work would be performed. They were also patient with questions. The company is insured properly and made the process of getting the City of Winter Garden approval simple. I would not hesitate to use them again and their prices were the best around by far.

The way the owner conduct his business is a refreshing reminder of old fashion American values - honesty, sincerity, hardworking, and courteous. They offer a good value for a big job.
We did not have to move any plantings for the tree cutting and only a couple of items for the stump grinding so he could get the machine in. It was remarkable. They are able to do this because of the use advanced machinery and years of EXPERIENCE!! The tree cutter team used a crane that only needs a few feet of space within which to operate. He easily squeezed between between the flower box and the shrubs. An operator sits in a cage on a crane and goes up 30-40 feet in the air to cut down the tree by sections. Wow, the skill it takes to know how to cut it, when they need to rope it and when they can let it fall. NO DAMAGE to shrubs or structures!!!
We had an invasive tree sapling that my husband though was a pretty native bush. They pointed it out and took it out as a matter of fact. Not going to have a future problem with it. Clean up was decent.
The son comes in days later and grinds the stumps with a expensive high tech grinder that is controlled by a portable. He can see exactly what is in front of the grinder as he guides it to the stump and see exactly how to grind the stump.
They invest in experienced hardworking people and what appears to be the best and latest tools and machinery that in the end produces an exceptionally result.
We highly recommend them.
